Problems with ROK/Soultion advice

[cmguttridge]

Hey all, still having problems with the ROK e cigarette. Greg at Rok has been very helpful sent me a total of 3 new batteries and a new PCC 3 of my total 5 batteries (both originals and one replacement) have entirely failed and one now has a 2 second cut off so I have to continuously 'chain toke' and one still works okay, all the problems seem to be switch breakage so are there any manual batteries that are compatible with ROK PCCs or am I best buying a new E cig with a manual battery (now out of the new vapor zone and am now open to less cigarette looking and sized devices) and if so are there any that have good PCCs?

have some electrical knowledge and a father with a huge electrical knowledge and range of tools so any small alterations that would allow a manual batteries to work with ROK e cigarettes and the PCC would be an option.

Searching around it appears your ROK is a standard 510 model e-cig, as such replacement
parts are widely available. On your side of the pond Liberty Flights would be a good vendor
to check out.

p.s Welcome to ECF !!!

Looking at it and watching a review of it on you tube, I'm believing this thing is the same as the Blu.
But I am not possitive.

Blu uses reverse polarity. The + is where the neg usually is on most other e-cigarettes.
Besides the fact most e-cigs are to thick around to fit in the tbes in the PCC, if you do manage to get one in, a manuall battery's push button will be activated.

I'd say leave that which is for the Roc together, and not try to adapt it or mix it with anything else.

There are many manual bateries that have PCCs available, or batteries big enough to make PCCs not needed.
Consider hopping down to the UK forum and take a look to get a better feel of more local venders.

Thanks for the replies, I've seen on other forums the BLU isn't compatible with the ROK but they're very similar, so is it possible to buy a 510 manual battery that'll fit the rok?

I still think the button will get in the way while in the PCC. You can try it but the hole for the batteries in the PCC dosen't look like it has the room.

The Roc cartos can be used as long as the threads are the same.

Thanks, yeah Scott from E-cig-reviews.com has a tutorial where he cuts the side of the PCC foam lining to allow for a manual battery on a different PCC and having a look at my ROK pcc this seems like it would work. Could anyone please recommend a manual battery that it suitable and short enough to fit in the PCC? my 4th ROK battery has now died all together down to one now

The standard 510 is your best bet at not being to long for the PCC. Still don't know for sure on the threading.

I linked to the batery only, both sites also have the whole kits available.
The Liberty flights also has a PCC made just for the 510.
